Matthew Tassier It sure is pretty brutal at the bottom as Arthur and Dave K set a new record for highest scoring Hyper Weakest Links with ever-present Marcus accompanying them in the drop-zone. So, Arthur, Dave and Marcus you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye!

Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2022: Round 14 - Hyper

<< Round 13 - Instant | Round 15 - Speed >>

Notes from the organizer: Round 14 is the return of an old WL favourite, the chance to take on Apterous Plum in a Hyper format game. Hyper has a more generous 45 second round limit, and you're going to need it here as Plum will, at least initially, pick 8 small numbers and is likely to max most, if not all, rounds. In 52 previous WL Hyper games Plum has only lost by more than 3 points once (Check out Gev's GOTW from 2018) so expect Plum to win most games here.

Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 33
Weakest Links required: 3
Most Hyper points scored: 1074 - Tom Cappleman
Highest average score (3+ games): 180 - Elliott Mellor (5 games)
Highest scoring Weakest Links: 100 - John Gillies (2020) & Robin M (2018)
Previous Hyper rounds v this bot: 2020 Round 15 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=3077 ), 2018 Round 12 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=2134 )

THREE lowest scoring Weakest Links will be removed from the tournament this round. If there is a tie for lowest scores then margin of victory/defeat will be taken into account amongst tied players followed, if necessary, by total score in the tournament so far (see notes by matches).
